    descriptionMike Salvatore discovered that FlightCrew improperly handled certain malformed EPUB files. An attacker could potentially use this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2019-13032) Mike Salvatore discovered that FlightCrew mishandled certain malformed EPUB files. An attacker could use this vulnerability to write arbitrary files to the filesystem. (CVE-2019-13241) Mike Salvatore discovered that the version of Zipios included in FlightCrew mishandled certain malformed ZIP files. An attacker could use this vulnerability to cause a denial of service or consume system resources. (CVE-2019-13453). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
